Chapter 2970
"Um...Gabrie, why haven''t I heard you mentioning Larry in the past few days?"
Joan inquired softly on the sofa in the living room, her eyes colored with a hint of puzzlement.She''s
here to look for Larry, yet she hasn''t once mentioned his name.
This is rather strange.
"Why should I mention him? I''ve got you now, no?"
Gabrie teased while blinking her eyes at her.
For some inexplicable reason, a burst of joy filled Joan up upon hearing that.
"When are we going to start an eatery, Joan?" Gabrie asked urgently, grasping her arm.
Hmm...
This is a question that really necessitates me to think long and hard.
Joan hadn''t made up her mind about the location since she was worried that someone woulde and
make trouble.
Too many things have transpired previously, and Larry urged me not to leave the house alone, so there
might be frequent incidents in the future.
Thus, I''m afraid that an eatery might not be in the cards.
"I''ll be honest with you, Gabrie.It''s not that I don''t want to start an eatery, but there are tons of
preparations to be made.For that reason, we can''t aplish it anytime soon; Joan exined at
once.Starting an eatery was also her dream, but it was truly not a good time to start a business when
the situation was So precarious.
"What''s all the fuss about? We''ll just make the preparations, then.If you don''t want to do that, I''ll do
it.Don''t worry, for everything will be done timely with my father’s help!"
Gabrie avowed as she patted herself on the chest.
Well, that''s true.
The Ward family is indeed very powerful.
However, I can''t drag them into my troubles.
No, no, I still need to think about it long and hard.
"Let me ponder upon it so that I cane up with the perfect solution, okay?"
Joan hastily proposed.
"Okay.Don''t worry, for it''s not all that urgent.I just wanted to know whether you''remitted to the n;
Gabrie replied with a pout, dipping her head.
At the sight of her mischievous expression, Joan pinched her cheek and giggled.
"What did you just say? Gabrie Ward is at Larry''s vi?"
De roared incredulously in her office.
"Yes.I don''t know why either, but that woman went to Larry Norton''s vi for no apparent reason; the
assistant answered cautiously with her head lowered.Damon it all to heil! I''m more than anxious to
implement my n, yet that woman simply has to be a hindrance! Why on earth did she have to go to
Larry''s vi? De rubbed her hands vigorously, her expression tense.
While the Ward family''s power is no match for my family''s, their influence within the country isn''t to be
underestimated.
If I truly make a move against Gabrie Ward, the patriarch of the Ward family will never let me off easy
if he were to learn of my involvement! Bang! De mmed a hand on the table, and her palm quickly
turned bright red.
Why did that b*tch, Gabrie Ward, have to go there at just this time? "How about we ask Gabrie
Ward out, Ms.Duff? Then, we can make a move against Joan Watts; the assistant promptly suggested,
her head snapping up.
That will indeed work, but if I were to ask her out, isn''t that tantamount to an admission of guilt? Larry is
no fool, so he''ll naturally be able to figure it out! No, no, that idea is definitely out of the question!
"What if we have someone else ask her out?" the assistant continued.
Hmm...
This one might work.
De nodded, her brain whirring at warp speed.
"Hello, is this Nancy Barrymore? I''m De.When I went to look for Larry yesterday, I heard two women
arguing in the vi, but I didn''t dare go in."
On the phone, De sounded exceedingly gentle.
Nancy was initially chagrined to hear her voice, but the moment she digested her words, she instantly
went on alert.
Two women? Joan should be alone in the vi, so what''s going on here? Don''t tell me Larry has a
mistress out there?Belonging to N?velDrama.Org.
